In another thread I made the comment that the Chinese parades are always so disciplined and ordered. Compare to the US.

None of the berets are worn the same way. The PLA would never let this fly.

This leading contingent is not even marching in step.

And why are they marching in their combat uniforms? Every other military in the world has dress uniforms for this purpose.

These guys are US army members, dressing in WW1 uniforms for the parade. They are not in step either, some are on their left foot while others are on their right foot. Some are even slouching. Also don’t armies try to put people of similar height on the same row? Even reenactors do a better job.

It’s a even a VS thing. I don’t particularly watch military parades but it’s never been so flagrant to me except in the US. An army that got fat on its own belly, existing only to funnel money to Raytheon Boeing and Lockheed Martin. You can tell they don’t fight equal adversaries from these pictures alone. Their own ships are rusting.

Compare to China’s parade. This is any random picture:
